Hooray

Well Becky had a follow-up appointment and it must have gone well since she is now off bed rest. Best thing ever :) Things are going good they make it sound like our baby will come early but I'm not so sure that I believe them. Anyways everything is going lots better now, only a few weeks left.

Bedtime all the Time

Good and Bad news -

Good : The ultra-sound went well and the baby looks healthy - hurray!

Bad :Becky went in for her reg. check-up feeling great...and the Dr. sent her to the hospital only to find out she's already dilated and was having contractions 2 minutes apart. So, after a long day of shots, monitors, and more meds, she was able to go home, with one condition -
.. .. Bed Rest!! WHAT?

So she is now officially my "Immobile Incubator" And I wont let her do anything!!! Can you imagine how she's handling this? Becky, of all people? ;) It's fun!

Should we be worried? - 34 weeks

At my last OB appointment, the Dr. told me I had a few mild signs of preterm labor, but nothing to really worry about...no biggie, just be careful - done.

Today was another appointment. I was told I'm measuring a little small, had no weight gain, and was asked to schedule an Ultra-Sound to check on things... she didnt really explain - just said it could be that I'm tall and the baby's moved toward my back, or that I'm losing amniotic fluid, and that Dr.'s worries are usually 90% wrong, but that it's good to check. I didnt think much of it until I came home and realized an ultra sounds this late isnt exactly normal ...

Should we be worried? I guess we'll find out next week :)

Sister Love

 The BEST gift for my birthday was having my sister come visit!! It was SOOO great and it only made me wish it could happen more often!! Crystal just loved "Issha" :)

 Late night fun ... Chinese foot soaking, face masks, and massages while watching "Prince Caspian"

 Brian and Lisa playing games - no matter the game, Brian always seemed to win - fortunately for Lisa, the games her and I played together were definitely more even. :)  Crystal tried to help out and give a little "good luck"

 Hmmm.....who is this?  Lisa?  Wrong!!  I finally decided to dye my hair back to its original color - it's CRAZY to think that my hair really is that dark after having it blonde for so long.  It was SOO fun dyeing - we wish we took pics!

 Thank you Lisa for spending a GREAT week with us! I couldnt ask for a greater time...okay, except for weather that wasnt 25 MPH winds and rain storms all week.  :)  WE LOVE YOU!!

Birthday Bowling

 Brian and Crystal picking out their bowling balls - Dont you just LOVE her little bowling shoes?? :)

 Time to bowl...it's sad to admit, but she did better than I did!

 Watching her ball as she almost hit a strike!

Our little score keeper :)  It was so great for Brian to take a brake from school and make my birthday perfect!! - Thank you!!
